Start Each Day with the Lord

It is said that “A day hemmed in by prayer will seldom unravel.” In the 40+ years I have served the Lord I have found this to be true. This does not count as your quiet time, but is just a good way to start your day on the right foot, FOR HIS GLORY!

Morning Prayer

Good morning, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit! This is the day the Lord has made; I WILL rejoice and be glad in it! Hallelujah!

Father, I commit myself to You, body, soul, and spirit. I pray You cover me and my spiritual senses with the blood of Jesus and surround me with Your Warrior Angels.

I pray the same protection for my immediate family, my extended family, my pastors, my church family, my friends, our homes, properties, workplaces, ministries, businesses, vehicles, schools, livestock, and pets. I ask for angels and the Heavenly Host to bind all strongmen assigned to us and every unclean spirit within 1000 yards of us. Please make them all deaf, blind, mute, and paralyzed.

I claim all the promises of Psalm 91 over all of us and declare, according to Your word, that no weapon formed against us will prosper. Through the name and the blood of Jesus, I take authority over and declare null and void any witchcraft of any kind, including all altars set up, assignments and scrolls of the enemy decreed by him or any servant of his, including word curses, sent against anyone and anything I am praying for. I also forbid any backlash from these warfare prayers.

I extend forgiveness to all who have ever hurt me or anyone I love and ask You to bless them, bring them into Your Kingdom, and restore them completely. Show me anyone I have wronged I need to ask forgiveness from, should You so direct me. I ask for forgiveness for anything I may have done, thought, or said that was displeasing to You. Selah I ask You to help me get the victory over every area of my life I am struggling in (name these areas) so I may bring glory to You.

I put on the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, and the belt of truth. My feet are shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. I take up the shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit. Please remind me to pray in the Spirit today for every situation You lead me to pray for.

I ask that everything I do, say, and think would be pleasing in Your sight, be according to Your perfect will, and would bring glory to Your name and Your name ONLY.

I declare, according to Your word, that I have the mind of Christ. May I see with His eyes, hear with His ears, speak with His lips, love with His heart, touch with His hands, and go with His feet.

I ask that the fruits and the gifts of the Spirit be apparent and active in my life.

I command self and the flesh to stand down and be silent.

I pray You fill me afresh with Your Holy Spirit and give me the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation.

Please open my eyes to all Scripture I read and give me supernatural understanding.

I pray that everyone I come in contact with will be drawn closer to You in some way.

I ask for, receive, and thank You for, all the grace, wisdom, physical and emotional strength, discernment, provision, anointing, and favor I will need.

Father, turn my eyes upon Jesus. Through the Holy Spirit, please make me more like Him.

I praise You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and I thank You for hearing my prayer and guiding my steps. In Jesus' precious name, Amen.
